Ghostcrawler Quits, Dave Kosak Promoted

Tonight we were witness to an example of messy break-ups gone wrong as Dave Kosak, Lead Quest Designer for World of Warcraft, grabbed the wayward reigns of Class and Systems Design from Greg "Ghostcrawler" Street. Informed that Ghostcrawler would be spending a drunken weekend gambling to ease his sorrows, Dave "Fargo" Kosak decided to take to Twitter in an attempt to officiate and continue the iterative process that is balancing World of Warcraft using the hastag "#TakingOverForGhostcrawler.

Ghostcrawler, seeing this and no doubt effectively inebriated at this point, turned venomous and began to criticise the story of World of Warcraft (which is -in part- helmed by Lore Guru, Dave Kosak) with sarcastic tweets under the hashtag "#TakingOverFromFargo". I've created a transcript below for those who dislike Twitter.

@DaveKosak AKA "Fargo"

Yeah I'll be taking over class tweets now! RT @Ghostcrawler: GC fairly unplugged for a few days. Expect few updates.

Death Knights now take damage from healing. To balance, DPS classes can damage them to restore health. #TakingOverForGhostcrawler

For science, all class nerfs will be done on a single server so we can compare to the norm (Sorry, Lightbringer). #TakingOverForGhostcrawler

This. RT @Eliot_Lefebvre: You can't buff Shaman. You literally can't. Anything the class lacks in power it makes up in awesome. #TakingOverForGhostcrawler

I'm keeping the moose. #TakingOverForGhostcrawler

Druids get new DPS spec, where they shapeshift into a Worgen Hunter. #TakingOverForGhostcrawler

Hm, @Rastailian points out that would allow Druid Hunters to tame themselves. Accordingly, they can "Stampede," (looks like mirror image.)

Yes! And Forsaken can cannibalize living Death Knights! RT @SihnonHunter: Taurens & Worgens now skinnable.

At this point Ghostcrawler caught wind of what was happening on the Twit-O-Sphere and began chiming in his bitter vengence:

@Ghostcrawler AKA Greg Street

Night elves will henceforth no longer be sissies. #takingoverfromfargo

No more trolls. Thunder King was their last stand and it failed. #takingoverfromfargo

Tauren realize their goals have always been more in line with the Alliance. Swap imminent. #takingoverfromfargo

Anduin duels Garrosh. Loses. BIG SURPRISE. #takingoverfromfargo

New warchief? Undead Gamon. #takingoverfromfargo

Gnomes... no. Just no. We're sorry about gnomes. #takingoverfromfargo

Out of bad guys, so... Lich King's back baby! #takingoverfromfargo

Folks, we have no idea where we're going with Draenei. I mean... really. #takingoverfromfargo

It seems that, for now anyway, tensions have simmered and matters have moved from public eyes to private discussions. It remains to be seen whether these changes will stick or are yet to be implemented. However given community support for many ideas represented we may be about to witness an unprecendented shake up in the Game Development of the Warcraft series.

You don't know what you have done Thesmall001, thousands and thousands of Ghostcrawler hater jump and cry tears of joy right now because of you. Will you take the responsibility for the sad faces they make as soon as they find out its a lie ?! ;D

I had a good laugh at "Night elves will henceforth no longer be sissies. #takingoverfromfargo" That will never change.

"Why do we fight? To protect home and family, to preserve balance and bring harmony. For my kind the true question is, what is worth fighting for?"

If this would really happen? Give it 3 months to have "Kosak is clueless, we want GC back"

You guys forgotten the shit that rained on Kalgan?

You'd think, given how salty they taste, tears would not be very refreshing and yet they are so delicious and provide me great sustenance.
